Hello Everyone,

If you have any other suggestions or would like to go over the past questions then please go over the attached DOC.

Thanks and best wishes,

*Question 1: A suggestion was to add "Solid State Drives (SSD)" as an option.



*Question 12: A possible change in wording to "more storage" could be "The capability to extend storage capacity." This could clear some of the ambiguity that was mentioned in the feedback. Does the WG feel this removes the ambiguity while still asking the same question?



*Questions 19-20: Ask whether the organization uses external/cloud storage systems. A suggestion was to add a question which asks "how do you use" external/cloud storage. First of all, is the WG interesting in adding this question? Is there way to structure this question without it being a free-answer question so the results gathered will be easier to evaluate?


*Suggested new question: "What technologies are you using to reduce your storage costs?" This question could have check boxes or a menu of options, with two possible choices being "data-duplication" and "compression." If the WG is interested in this question then what are some other options we could add?
